> I am both hopeful and a little cornered at the same time.
I haven´t posted about the season but I am feeling hopeful after checking the actual content. I have actually liked The End In Friend way more than I could have imagined and we are supposedly in the filler season because of the forced school from Hasbro´s marketing department. So, it seems that as long as they write the characters properly, it will flow by itself. Not to mention that the books and comics (Whitley please don´t fuck it up) quality complement this franchise with a good health. So,let´s hope this gen ends well.

> The /end/ doesn't feel like some bizarre experiment or a waste of time. More stable, less uncertainty, though such foundation doesn't mean darkness is gone a thematic around here...
it won´t be the last time we will be talking about darkness. 
Anyway, that period felt actually uncertain because we were like: do we stay? what are we doing now? We have reached the barrier,the year has ended and the party is over....
It´s certainly more stable and the first thread is reaching the 500 pots. There is still a lot of experimentation left but the initial ideas or schemes have been presented so we do have more references. I am still trying to figure out what should come next.

> I go into a little melancholy mixed with self reflective observation and a bit of a dark ambient do to nightmare night, so yeah, you may see some in me as well. 
dark insightful content incoming

> This place is already going its own askew direction and it already has spawned interesting concepts.
the bat pony Cadence concept is actually yours in fact.
This thread is not new at all for /mlp/ standards but the purpose behind it is really different here.
I have to still define my personal project, define completely the concepts for the edits in general (though I have actually applied the shoegaze/wall of distortion concept to the visual art, that should turn out into grey zones of thought),write some greens (including something for this thread) and find more sources to get inspiration, especially from music(the title of this thread comes from a song in fact).

So, there are plenty of things to do. I just don´t hold any promise in the near future but I can say that this is far from finished.

> I was reserved because i usually am a lurker more than an active participant in things--boy that is a difference right there. 
me too, reserved because of my own safety, especially in terms of personal stuff. Then you realize that ponies actually bring a sense of community despite the far away people, the interest by itself brings comfort to those who are into it. Magic? I don´t know but that familiarity sure helps and encourages a lot.
When you have confidence in talking with 3rd people that you don´t know and actually know how to deal with all the situations, that confidence ends most of your fears in real life and those skills actually serve for something else beyond chan interactions. I have noticed that I no longer fear that much unknown people as long as I know how to put some restrictions to myself and know what I should talk about first and then,check how it goes.

Lurking is still useful though. A retirement at time is a victory. 

> When you continued to post greens it caused me to through my hat in the ring as well.
I am glad to have inspired others for what I do (when I wasn´t an avid writefag back then). I have been learning those skills and compiling the traditional writing and testing it on the chan style. I see that from the Radiance fic, I had made you jump into it and the last two definitely were the cherry on the cake(and you said you couldn´t write serious things....and I am waiting for Candy). 
I, as perfectionist as I am, have to prove myself again sooner or later. One cannot live from the past eternally, I have to find something else.
